Prognosis Impact of the Lymph Node Ratio in Patients with Colon Adenocarcinoma: a Single-Centre Experience

Purpose Recently, the positive lymph node ratio (LNR) is considered a new prognostic parameter on survival and time to progression for patients with colon cancer. The aim of this study was to determine the prognostic impact of the LNR as an independent factor for overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) in patients with colon cancer regardless of their clinical stage.
